–>Musiche:–>Trama del film:

Down-and-dirty musical love story set in the world of the working class. Nick is an ironworker who builds and repairs bridges. He's married to Kitty, a dressmaker, a strong and gentle woman with whom he has three daughters. He is carrying on a torrid affair with a redheaded woman named Tula. Nick is basically a good, hardworking man driven forward by will and blinded by his urges. Like Oedipus at Colonus, he is sent into exile and searches to find his way back through the damage he has done. Explores the cost and value of a relationship through life and death. When the characters can no longer express themselves with language, they break into song, lip-synching the tunes lodged in their subconscious. It is their way to escape the harsh reality of their world – to dream, to remember, and to connect to another human being. Written by Anonymous

This is funny in a way that American movies usually aren't. Gandolfini
is playing a character extremely far away from all Soprano stuff. But
he's a hero.

He's cheating on his wife in a way which isn't glamorous, just rather
cheap and rather human. Susan Sarandon as the wife is really funny
through all her love-hate. This family is dysfunctional, but in a way
that's impossible not to like.

And it really is a musical. Sometimes. The characters burst out, miming
to hit songs. That's show stoppers, but in the good sense of the word.
It's all worth seeing.
